Dress Rehersal?
The title is apt. Please keep in mind this is a rough draft.
For the final every aspect will have to be enhanced.
But this test makes me feel real confident.

Animation and Compositing Test
This is a simple test to see what kinda motion I can get out of this.
The guy is a little stiff, but if I take some time then I can get some descent motion out of him. Not bad for a bunch of quick pics taken with a camera on sticks. I currently have to transfer them to the computer for assemblage. Kinda tedious but it doesn't stop stuff from happening...animation stuff.
Now a Kitchen Sink Composite. Meaning I threw a lot of elements together to see how close I can come to the first batch of Promo Posters. It came out a little dark but other than that I feel its on the right track.
A test I did last summer. I plan to use a similar techinque
for the Stickmen faces and lip-sync.

Monkey Jam: Its free and PC

and
Frame Thief: $40 bucks and your MAC solution.

There are of course other choices but at a beginning stage these are the best around for the dollar, or lack of it.

Picture Gallery
The first week of photos. Basically all lighting tests for compositing. Most of the first ones are the pics I used for the promo posters.

Test shots
With the 2 pics I could use I made 2 promo posters. I plan to do a few more of these to help refine my green screen shooting. I need a bigger light!!! I also need to paint these guys up a bit I think. Can't wait to add the cape too.
Thanks go to my friend who came into SF last night but got lost in a no no bar, so I just kept working. Without his flake I couldn't have gotten this done. See my fundamentalist friends sin can lead to good. A little too much of a stretch there that was.
